I realize I would have to give more veiled babies than I would expect of panthers back. Could be a good breeder project if you wanted a few females

They came today :) they're pretty small though still... How long is it from egg to pupae? I put some fresh tomato in with them and they're going to town! I will probably breed some off, but I am interested in the timeframe as a larva so I can get the most out of them. :)

She's gonna have a ton of eggs! She's huge. Kiwi looked just liked that(however she's a veiled), and had 48 eggs

Would anybody trade some panther babies for more veiled babies? This wouldn't be for 8-10 months, but I have really been thinking about getting a panther and expanding my collection a bit. I can't get enough of these guys :) I have 48 eggs that I anticipate to be most-all fertile. A few of which...

How exciting! Congrats :) how's mama doing? Give her some extra love and lots of water and food!

Congrats that's so exciting!

And yes, my high turquoise male, Yoshi is the sire. They should be poppin out in about 6 months!

I had a bin with moist sand in her cage. I took it out after she finished and transferred those eggs. She ate 4 silk worms and 2 dubias right away after laying :) she's sleeping now

They have been transferred. They are in Tupperware with moist vermiculite as the medium and stored in a dark place. Very excited for the little ones :) Yoshi(sire) is a very high turquoise veiled, so I know they're going to be beautiful!

She laid at about 3 am. I stayed up all night with her( of course she didn't know I did). She had 48!!

Their natural enclosure is Madagascar... So keep it slightly smaller than that and you're golden ;)

They should be misted 3+ times a day(I'm not a panther owner, but have done my own research). Drainage is not required but a good idea. If it doesn't drain, then you need to be sure it dries between misting to avoid respiratory infection. To make one, I need more info on your set up. I have a...

I've learned that hand feeding aids this a bit as well

Looks very similar to my drainage system.... Clearly that just means great minds think alike ;) Very well done. I intend to put a hibiscus in yoshi's enclosure very soon as well.

Oh the wait... That's the hard part! Lol. Thanks everybody! I will update with any news I have! :)

Awesome! Thank you! Ill read over your hornworm blog! Your silkworm breeding thread has been EXTREMELY helpful to me thus far! Thanks for your help :)

Can I feed hornworms from the day they hatch to e day they pupae just bell pepper and tomato fruit? This way they stay non toxic? Will this effect them at all once hatched to reproduce?

They are indeed fertile! Kiwi is awesome. She was very tired but I gave her lots of water and plenty of silkworms :) ill be sure to dust them with extra calcium. Thank you :)

Kiwi dug for about 8hours yesterday and buried 48 eggs!
